VERSE 1: (M. I. Abaga)
Ahn, Baba this town, I have been round; I have seen ups, I have seen downs
I have seen smiles, I have seen frowns; I have seen many men wearing kings' crown
As we dey Street, Baba some dey Estate; Some get big office, we dey watch gate
Some dey chop food, we dey wash plate; But without you, Baba, it's a lost case
As you don show, Father, make I prostrate; You don bless this your boy with enough grace
You dey control things with thy justice; Na you got this son seating at the first place
Baba dey my front cause I know say I go reach; Trouble dey everywhere like Lebanese
As I climb up higher, more enemies; But like Kennis in 1999, you get Remedy
(CHORUS- Oritse Femi)
Mo gbadun ohun t'o se laye mi
O dun mo mi, o yo mi; temi yo mi yeh
Mo gbadun ohun t'o se laye mi o
Temi ye mi o; Oritsemi yea yea oh uh oh oh oh eh
.

[Baby mo sope o]; oh o yo mi ohh; [Baba gba ope o]
VERSE 2: (M. I. Abaga)
Baba, surely goodness and mercy shall follow us; Some dey praise man, make dem follow chop
No be me dem go carry do holocaust; If dem wan ride person, make dem join Polo Club
I no fit kneel down for any mankind; One good man to save us we can’t find
We get Patience for Goodluck to make sense; But still our parents dey struggle to pay rent
Baba dey my back, make I no fear; Show me road, make we show there
Because you made me, because you saved me; E be like HD, your blessing is so clear
Ah and no be wetin I deserve; I be in deep end cos my grace is reserved
Me I've plenty when everything is costly; You put me first, so I never would be last
You be Chairman
.
(CHORUS)
Mo gbadun ohun to se laye mi [Baba twuale]
O dun mo mi, o yo mi
Temi yo mi ye mi; eh
Mo gbadun ohun to se laye mi o
Temi ye mi o
Oritsemi yea yea
ORITSE FEMI:
Ota se l'on le wa kiri
Them dey pursue us for wetin the eyes no see
For the money we dey hustle on the street; get the money now
And na dem dey pursue us, but all we dey look for: ends-meet
Ih yea oh oh, olomi yea eh; ah ah ah ah ah
Baba, bere wole wa, a mora wa; sare wole wa yea
.
NANYA:
I will lift up my eyes to the hills
from whence comet my help
My help comet from the Lord
The Lord which made heaven and earth
He would not let my foot slip
He who watches over me does not slumber
.
FRANK EDWARDS:
[Oh oh ohhhhhhhh]; oh oh oh oh oh oh
You bless me, na you be Chairman
Baba Mimo oshey; I bless your name, I dey hail you
Hands in the air, oshey; if e no be for your love, Baba mi loke
Tell me wetin I for do? I go dobale, I prostrate for you, The Most High
Komole; I go dance for you, Baba- you be Chairman ohh
God, you be Chairman ohh; you be Chairman ohh
God, you be Chairman ohh; you be Chairman oh
Nobody be like you; you be Chairman ohh
.
NANYA:
The lord watches over you
The Lord is your shield at your right hand
The sun will not harm you by day nor the moon by night
The Lord keep you from all harm; He will watch over your life
The Lord will protect your coming and your going,
both now and forever more.....
